Model Tests on Influence Factors on the Pullout Behavior of Suction Caisson in Stratified Soils
Advances in Civil EngineeringAs offshore wind power constructions expand into deep waters, suction caissons have gradually become the preferred foundation. The controlled load of the suction caisson for the deep-water wind turbine is the pullout load.

Stress-seepage coupled analysis of critical suction for installation of suction caissons in sand
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2021 The critical suction is the key control factor for the installation of suction caissons in sand. The existing methods mainly rely on seepage analysis to determine the critical suction, which does not consider soil deformation and consequently might not ...

Prediction of suction caissons behavior in cohesive soils using computational intelligence methods [PDF]
International Journal of Mining and Geo-Engineering, 2020 Compared to drag anchors, suction caissons (Q) in clays often provide a cost-effective alternative for jacket structures, catenary, tension leg moorings, and taut leg.

Numerical modelling of transient cyclic vertical loading of suction caissons in sand [PDF]
, 2015 This paper presents numerical investigations of the monotonic and cyclic behaviours of suction caissons upon vertical transient loading. Both drained and partially drained conditions are investigated.
